Key all-rounder Stokes out of England T20 squad, uncapped Curran in
Not named: Ben Stokes

BEN STOKES has not been named in England’s IT20 squad for their upcoming matches against Australia and India due to an injury sustained against Pakistan earlier this month. 

However, the 14-man squad does contain the uncapped Sam Curran — who made his Test debut at Headingley this month.

England announced on Monday that the hamstring tear Stokes suffered was “progressing well,” and it was hoped he may be able to play in the three-match Twenty20 series starting against India on July 3.
